Getting a mini PC for self hosting. Between a SSD and an NVMe, how would you split OS and random data (like movies, books, etc)?

thatºs my objective. But I’m just not sure how to organize OS and the rest of the data. Or if I just use an SSD, or just an NVMe drive…

European prices suck. I got a m920q with a i5-9600T, 8GB of RAM, and a 256 SSD off ebay. Embarrassed to say how much, but I managed to negotiate a 15€ discount for the postage costs. Expecting it on thursday. I’m not sure if I will trust the SSD or just buy a new one. This is supposed to replace my Synology, my pi4 and my i5-3570K, which are hosting a huge amount of docker containers each.

Thank you for the reply to my first Lemmy post. I guess this works 😁

I’ve heard of eating the rich but this is ridiculous

What add-ons are you talking about? I run HA via Docker and I have full access to HACS.

Exactly why I picked it.
